Spotlight on Ken Dorph as John Watson
Ken Dorph is another of our new cast mates, playing the role of the elder Dr John Watson who serves as narrator and guide through this incredible story. As Watson says this is a tale he’s never shared before about his early friendship with Holmes and an event that changed them both forever. Ken lives locally but his work has taken him around the world and back again. And he’s never been a stranger to the theater. This is his debut with boots on the ground theater and we’re honored that he joins our cast with such energy and aplomb. John Watson has always been one of Ken’s favorite literary characters. Which is why he fits so beautifully into this role. Come see!
